Uptime reporting site down

Hub has reported website has been down for 3 days, but the website is loading (front and back ends) successfully. Not sure what error on Hub means (ERROR: WRITE EPROTO ) but I do see SSL a couple of places. This site is one of several on the same host using the same type SSL (Fatcow -- boo later).

Could you please share a screenshot of the error message from your Hub?
Monosnap is a free tool that can assist on that: https://monosnap.com/welcome

Additionally, please grant temporary support access to this installation via WPMUDEV Dashboard plugin. Just navigate in WP admin area under WPMU DEV -> Support page and click on the "grant support access" button. You can find detailed information about it here: https://premium.wpmudev.org/docs/getting-started/getting-support/#chapter-5
Please do let us know when access is granted, because we don't get any notifications about it.

Would you please scan your site using this tool https://www.uptrends.com/tools/uptime ? In many geo locations, your site is not loading, returning HTTP error. It can be related to SSL protocol that is used on a site or a server restriction that doesn't allow a site to load. Would you please contact your hosting provider regarding this issue?

Hosting reporst nothing is wrong. I have VPN'd to many places around the world and can always access the site just fine.

On further investigation: (a) This only happens on a Wordpress site. I can do the Uptrend test on html sites and other php sites with no problems. (b) wordpress sites I work on using other hosts have the same results in Uptrends. (c) all locations green after uploading initial wp 4.9.8 files. Run the install and immediately about 8 more turn red. As I add plugins and theme, more locations turn red. (d) turning off SSL doesn't change anything.

As the Hub is now reporting it can talk to the site, and there is obviously a more systemic problem than just my sites or host, and it doesn't actually seem to be stopping browsers from seeing my sites, I am throwing up my hands and moving on.

Were there any latest change in the SSL certificate maybe?
Cause I still see a lot of Http Protocol Error in https://www.uptrends.com/tools/uptime which is definitely about something wrong in the SSL configuration.

Your hosting provider should be able to sort this out, as it shouldn't be caused by any plugin or core file.

Please keep in mind that our Uptime Monitor is using two servers, main one is in US-Virginia (34.196.51.17) and secondary is in EU-Frankfurt (52.57.5.20). So it has to be down for US and EU, in order to trigger a down event.
